12-5054/LF
12-5056/LF '56FW'
12-5057/LF
one more remained unidentified.
Not all the fiscal years were fully confirmed. 7 F35s flew in the afternoon, the rest were identified by telescope once the heatwaves had stopped. They park in sunshades on the left side as you look from the outside, some are nose to the right which are easy to read from the tails and some are nose to the left so you have to find the right spot nose-on to pick each one off the tail. Also they carry the last 2 of the serial on the nosewheel door so a mega-pole should be able to read them with no heatwaves. The Australians are on the line furthest left.
Many based F16s also noted, but will have to go through the photos first before posting a log. It may take a few weeks as I have had a really busy trip so far!
